THE RESTORER

    Though the devil wants the destruction of mankind and he wants God to be the one to destroy His work. He's been trying all he could through the ages to achieve this, but fortunately for mankind, God has us covered (Psalms 25:6).
    God made man in his image and gave him the power to rule on earth(Genesis 1:26). Men fell and lost his power due to the tricks of the devil. Then God cursed man race, but it's so amazing to find out that those curses were blessings in disguise, because God had a greater plan to defeat the devil. Through those pronouncements, redemption came to mankind through the birth and death of our Lord Jesus Christ(Genesis 3:15-19).
      I wonder how a person would offer His Son's body for the remission of sin for people who are rebellious. While we were deep in sin, He died for that sin just in case someone will see the cross and repent through the godly sorrow implanted in their heart by the holy spirit
      All the years that the devil has taken from him will be restored through our faith in Christ Jesus. He gives beauty to restore life for death that comes with sin, the holy spirit for the laws and so many other restorations. He truly restores! (Psalms 23:3). He restores those things that the devil had taken away- EVERYTHING. Put your trust in Him and return things back for you the way he originally made them.
   When David came back from a fight to find out that the things he loved had been taken away. He encouraged himself in the Lord because he had faith in Him. He inquired and the Lord told him to pursue and he did recover all (1samuel 30:1-18). So I challenge you also never to let what's you've lost be the reason why you've lost your Joy, but trust in the Lord, and I assure you that He will restore those things.
   And when it seems like you aren't on the right track, his rod and staff will bring you back. He will restore you as a person. Nothing is too big for God to restore, not you or things lost. When all hope is lost, the Lord shows Himself mighty. Even when the state of things is totally damaged, he'll call out things that are in existence to come to life as if they truly existed (Romans 4:17). Have faith and all will be well in Jesus name. Amen! SHALOM!!!

Lesson In All Things

Learning isn't limited to a gathering of people with a tutor, but an experience that leaves a mark of influence. To learn means to gain knowledge or skill by studying, practicing, being taught or experiencing something. A lesson is a section where something is being taught and learned. It, therefore, means that there must be a teacher and a student. Life is a teacher. It teaches anyone who cares to listen and have wisdom. We are in the habit of running each day the same way and the days turn to weeks, weeks to months and later to years. We forget to pause, pay attention to life and absorb wisdom to live. Some of us have experienced but haven't gotten the lessons out of some. Wisdom is not measured by age or level of exposure or experience, but lessons got from our encounter with life. What did you learn as a child, teenager, adult, parent, businessperson, lawyer, pastor, teacher, etc? Whatever you do isn't as important as what are you learning? What will you pa...

The King Comes

Who is coming? Why is He coming? What is He coming to do? The major reason anyone would stand for anything is because they don't just know, but understand the purpose and mission of that thing.  Sometimes, I find out that I am carried away by activities that don't really matter to the reason why I joined a group or something in the first place. So, what I do to get myself back on track is that: I slow down and ask myself how I got where I am and why I started or made the decision in the first place. And by the grace of God through the help of the Holy Spirit, It works - I find my way back. As Christians, we have been taught so many things and have been involved in so many things(which are very good) that we sometimes lose track of why we are believers in the first place. It is good to serve God and to love others as ourselves, but we must also remember to go back to the cross. Not just to receive grace and strength to do His work, but to also serve as a reminder of t...

SAME GOD

   A song in Yoruba (Nigeria) says " the Lord is, as the time of old, but we don't worship God like old times " . This is very true. I always wonder why there was power in the early churches, but now, we hardly see the manifestations like the ones we read about the book of Acts of the Apostles?!    Some times ago I thought that Christianity was a joke passed down to generations. We have little people in the church performing miracles, what are the other members of the church doing? Are we just smiling at situations and circumstances and say God is in control when God has bestowed power to do on us and has made us gods (psalms 82)?    We are supposed to be armies pulling down strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4) of the devil instead the church is held in captivity of the strong. The Great and Mighty God is always present but we don't seek Him for help. Where is the power of the church?! Haven't we lost it?    The fathers of old, the prophets, and t...
